About

Consider this Latin club an escape that can evoke a sense of holiday in even the most miserable souls. Whether it's the mirrors, the brass rails and paneling or the exuberant deejays, this 5,000-square-foot club resembles those in Miami or Mexico City where the parties never take a breather. The wooden parquet dance floor can hardly contain the masses, but that doesn't dissuade anyone from squeezing in. On that note, bear in mind that the parking lot fills up quickly, especially weekend nights. Patrons and employees alike mostly chit chat in Spanish, but the spirit transcends any language or cultural barrier. El Calor (translated as "the heat") continues to blaze when the surrounding Latin clubs close but weekend revelers are still hungry for a late-night snack and one more dance. Ages 21 and older.
